hiya, what do you reckon to next thursday as i seem to recall that was when it;s worked best for people when meeting up before. bessie, i cant remember where you are in london. if it's just you then from my pov can do london bridge, green park and battersea park without too much travel hassle?

if others interested then i know people were talking about regents park as a happy halfway for south and north londoners alike.

tyaca · 13/06/2008 15:40

good-o, would be nice to see you again gill. if we're doing regents park here is a selection of possible meeting points.

Oooh lovely - any of them would suit me as long as not too expensive - am trying to demonstrate it is possible to live on one salary at the mo!

Is it possible / allowed to take buggy on the tube escalators? Can't remember, and there's NO WAY I can manage with the baby bjorn any more....

princessllama · 13/06/2008 19:10

hi i'd love to come. only prob is thursday is a complete nightmare for me as i can't palm off 19month old. monday wednesday or friday would be much easier for me.
gill you can take the buggy on escalators. bit nervewracking at first. i nearly cried my first time. have your first go not in rush hour! and if in doubt get someone with a buggy to show you. you could always practice in marks and sparks

Gill79 · 13/06/2008 22:19

if not thurs then wed ok for me, or Fri pm. Maybe I'll take DP to practise the escalators before trying on my own!

tyaca · 15/06/2008 13:41

doh - baby brain-arama. we off to cardiff tues-thurs next week. fri pm works for me too. what does pm mean gill? or the monday after??

Just managed to get on the interwebby; dd has grizzled herself to sleep. I can only really do Tuesdays, but can manage Thursday mornings or Mondays if that is easier for everyone else. Fridays are difficult for me. Princess, could you do a Tuesday?

Gill, I don't think we live too far from each other; we could maybe go into town together? Then we could help each other with the buggies..?

tyaca · 16/06/2008 12:21

wow, you guys are sooo much busier than me . along with real nappy advice, i shall also be looking for Day-Filling Tips.

ok - throwing this out there... monday 21st?

OP posts:
Gill79 · 16/06/2008 22:19

do you mean the 23rd?

No.

Could do next Tuesday 2 or later. But you guys... you were going to meet to do your nappy thing so do that.

tyaca · 17/06/2008 10:59

pedant! bessie shall we meet on next tuesday you can do? 24th//2nd i think? all welcome of course.... and if we dont all manage to get together this time, would be nice to organise a july meet before i move to the sticks. may enlist mitfords to sort it, cause her organising skill on london bridge meet up blew me away...

Bessie123 · 18/06/2008 12:55

Oh, did I miss a meet up?

I can do Tuesday next week (24th). x

Egg · 18/06/2008 12:58

Wish I could come .

Gill79 · 18/06/2008 23:17

well I think us London girls (especially those with only one) should really bite the bullet and all head down to see Egg on the train one day. Can't be more than an hour or so from London (Waterloo?) and we can all look after each other.

Who's up for it?

(Sorry to crash)

Egg · 19/06/2008 07:54

It is 55 MINS from WAterloo

Gill79 · 19/06/2008 20:05

right I'll start a new thread next week to discuss.Happy weekend all!

tyaca · 20/06/2008 10:53

hiya - bessie 24th works for me if you up for it. regents park still good? anytime between eleven and three works. be good to see anyone else there who could make it.

a southern bound mission sounds good. iirc, egg is in surrey? after 14th i will not only be in surrey too but will have a dh with a car on holiday and poss can coerce into driving me places

Egg · 20/06/2008 15:36

Sadly no I am in HAMPSHIRE, but not that far from Surrey... .

Bet you are getting excited about your move Ty?!

mitfordsisters · 20/06/2008 19:05

I just cottoned on to this thread (oh, inadvertent pun). I'd like to come (and to the Egg visiting adventure as well).

Next tues is good for me if 1pm or after. Or a future Tuesday, Wednesday or Thursday. Boathouse cafe looks good - ducks always a bonus!

If it's Regents Park, I am going to say zoo reeelly reely quietly. They have a new butterfly house. However, I know that it is expensive and is really a day trip.

Nicki10 · 22/06/2008 21:11

Hi All

Please could I come? I have a 9 month old little girl and all my mummy friends have just gone back to work! So I'd love to meet some new people.

If it's alright to come please could you confirm that it is this Tuesday 24th June and at Regents Park, and the time.

Thanks

Nicki

tyaca · 23/06/2008 11:49

hiya all. egg yes muchos looking forward to the move... tho' can live without weekends of DIY getting flat ready for rental /

nicki you more than welcome! tho' fear i can hear tumbleweed on this thread... mitfords big lol at zoo meet. fear i may not be able to persuade dh to cough up for the entry, but reckon we should make sure we keep up the postnatal thread as long as poss so that we can take our lo's when they a little bit older.

my feeling is that if we get more than a couple of yays for, say 11.30am at boathpuse cafe bu this evening, let's do it! otherwise, i may slink into a corner with tail between legs at my inability (YET AGAIN) to sort a meet up out it personally emoticion!

mitfordsisters · 23/06/2008 12:34

Sorry everybody, mumnesia again - just recalled that ds has his 16 week injections tomorrow, so no can do tomorrow the 24th but would love to do another day.

Hi Nicki btw

ps I checked and zoo costs £17 . Ducks are free though!

cosima · 23/06/2008 12:40

hi just seen this and can't tell when its happeneinhg or has it happended?

tyaca · 23/06/2008 13:42

lol @ mumnesia. just posted on the main post natal thread about dh's new word for me ... mumpty. hiya cosima, hasnt happened and may never do at this rate! looks like tomo out the question now. will keep an eye out for bessie as tues was best for her and i've my beady eyes on some spare nappies she has going . otherwise, how would this friday sounds? know princess can do fridays and we may be able to twist her llama arm to rejoin us. toodlepip

cosima · 23/06/2008 15:50

no can do friday. going for a smear [horror]

Bessie123 · 23/06/2008 18:50

Tomorrow is still ok for me. I can do Regents Park at the boathouse cafe, but it will take me a while to get there; could we make it 12.00 instead? If not, it's not a problem, just means I will have to get moving in the morning. I will check this thread tomorrow morning, to see what is best with everyone.
